The Fitzgerald lab is a Regenerative NeuroImmunology research group with a particular focus on Multiple Sclerosis (MS), an immune-mediated, demyelinating disorder of the Central Nervous System (CNS).

Our goal is to identify new strategies to treat MS and other inflammatory and demyelinating disorders. We are particularly interested in myelin regeneration (remyelination) and aim to identify novel therapeutic targets to promote remyelination. To do this, we uncover new knowledge of how the immune system influences CNS stem cells and tissue regeneration.
